I apparently UNDERSTATED the Homeland Security budget expenditures under Obama. I originally looked at the "Gross Budget" and incorrectly assumed that this is all that Obama and friends spent. The agency also takes in fees.............I'm guessing on airlines and anything else they can squeeze money from, and I didn't include this approximately $12 billion per year. That moves the 8 years of Obama spending closer to $440,000,000,000 ($0.44 trillion).
Billy, this is somewhat of an estimate as I didn't pull up each year, but I did look at four of the eight annual budgets. My number is pretty damn close. Since you don't believe me, you might look for each budget on your own. See below.
Once again, why did Obama spend this money if terrorism isn't a problem?
Homeland security budets for the past decade or so

Herein lies my problem with typical liberal. This is a giant shitload of money, but it's only "one and a half cents of every dollar".
A trillion here, a trillion there, pretty soon, you're talking real money.
